• 5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Financial disclosures, the source, utilization and allocation of money obtained internationally or locally are very important. At a time when we are very serious about national security given the complexities of roles that organizations play in our national leadership and in the political context, I support the clause that calls for financial disclosures on sources of funding. We know that nations have collapsed and can collapse where there is manipulation and perpetration by financial muscle which is not legitimate. Thirdly is the question of accountability. The disclosures should hedge on national reports, whether money is obtained from overseas or from ... view
• 5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, let me finish since the Motion has not been put to the time limit. view
• 5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: I was talking about correspondence. We have institutions that are now very strong under the Political Parties Act. We have a Judiciary that is very strong. We have the Executive with Motions being passed here daily and laws that now have been approved to implement the Constitution. We need to demarcate--- view
• 5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am very concerned about this impatience to my contribution and I think as a legislator, I have an entitlement to give my views. That is why I came all the way from Mukurwe-ini this morning to speak powerfully about this Bill. view
• 5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I welcome my niece. Welcome! view
• 5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I also rise to congratulate Dr. Kones for this Bill. I support this Bill and wish him well in his pursuits to serve his county as a Governor. view
• 10 Oct 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Bill by my great friend, Dr Laboso. I want to congratulate her for this very insightful initiative. As we progressively implement the Constitution, there will, obviously, be important legislative steps that we will need to take in order to cause the Government to move towards the direction of putting in place programmes that will either synergize what exists already and is spread across various dockets and projects in the system, or bring complementary ideas like hers. Listening to the hon. Member moving the Motion, it was obvious that she had ... view
• 10 Oct 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I had done only 20 seconds and I wish to use the remaining minutes to finish it. We need to build synergy among institutions, for example, the National Council of Children, the NGOs and the Kenya National Human Rights Commission and the National Council for People with Disabilities together, so that we can cause the vulnerable groups and the disadvantaged to benefit from a sustainable Government initiative. I note that in order to have a watertight system, Part III deals with people who qualify and employ people with disabilities, any other person like me, this ... view
• 10 Oct 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Bill. In implementing the Constitution, one of the basic things is education and unless we are empowered enough, all the other categories of implementation required in the Constitution would be inhibited because we would not have the manpower and capacity to ensure that we have the right drive to achieve the vision that we have set. Empowering, of course, of young people is core because it is investing for the future and for the right resource. I want to laud the Minister for this well thought piece ... view
• 10 Oct 2012 in National Assembly: are streamlined. They will be systematic, predicable and the audit will be received and annual reports expected. Therefore, the necessary corrections of any area that will be discovered to require improvement will be made as a matter of routine engagement. We have had scenarios where areas or schools have gone for years without any serious audit. We have had instances where institutions have been mismanaged and there is no report that can cause any correction. This also provides an opportunity for such reports to document easily the achievements of those managers that do very well because the evaluation or assessment ... view
